Data integration & harmonization

Ensure Seamless Data Integration and Harmonization for Public Health

Public health data comes from a wide range of sources—health facilities, labs, community surveys, administrative systems—each using different structures, terminologies, and standards. Combining these into a coherent and reliable dataset is critical for evidence-based policymaking, national reporting, and outbreak response.

At Fjelltopp, we lead the strategic design and stakeholder engagement necessary for successful data integration and harmonization efforts. We work with ministries, multilateral agencies, and NGOs to translate complex data challenges into structured, sustainable solutions.

We advise on data standards, governance, and system interoperability. Our team leads consultations with data owners and users across sectors to ensure alignment, build consensus, and establish realistic, locally owned integration strategies.


What We Offer

  • Strategic Data Mapping We guide your team through the process of defining how disparate systems and datasets can align—ensuring harmonization of indicators, taxonomies, and schemas.

  • Stakeholder Coordination We facilitate cross-sector engagement, ensuring that the technical process is matched with clear communication and buy-in from all relevant actors.

  • Custom ETL Design Using robust open-source tools and custom Python pipelines, we build automated Extract–Transform–Load (ETL) processes that ensure accuracy, repeatability, and transparency.

  • Real-Time, Standards-Based Integration We implement solutions that support real-time data flows, compatible with platforms like DHIS2, CKAN, and Open Data Kit—enabling timely insights and streamlined reporting.
